C Am F G 

C               Am 
You led me down from my ledge 
F                G 
Gave my circle a brand new edge 
C                    Am  
You found the pieces left of me 
F                   G 
Sewed them together carefully 

                  F      G 
And I'm not gonna lie to you 
              E                                   Am 
I'm not gonna do the things I've learned I should do 
               F 
I'm not gonna hide 
       G 
'Cause I choose you 
C Em Am  G        F     G 
I--I--I--I choose you 
C Em Am  G        F     G 
I--I--I--I choose you 

C              Am 
You lift me up when I am low 
F                    G 
You are the sun that makes me grow 
C                Am 
Let's get rid of old remorse 
 F                       G 
'Cause the truth is that I am yours 

                  F      G 
And I'm not gonna lie to you 
              E                       Am 
I'm not gonna do the things I usually do 
              F 
I'm not gonna hide 
       G 
'Cause I choose you 
C Em Am  G        F     G 
I--I--I--I choose you 
C Em Am  G        F     G 
I--I--I--I choose you 

Am                   F 
Don't care what they say 
Am                 F 
About re-played mistakes 
Am                F Em Dm  
'Cause everything changes 
         G 
Starting today 

   C Em Am  G        F     G 
Oh I--I--I--I choose you 
C Em Am  G        F     G 
I--I--I--I choose you 
C Em Am  G        F     G 
I--I--I--I choose you

I--I--I--I choose you
